Put enough weight in the car to make the drive axles run straight and see what happens. If the vibration is diminished or goes away, it's time for axles. A driveshaft vibration is typically speed related, not load related. The axle ratio in combination with the three-lobe CV joints will give a frequency very close to the DS rotation speed.
